It looks like there's an exploit that abuses said command, but it is still not clear exactly how.
There's also an additional message when the reconnect happens: "WARNING: POTENTIAL CLIENT.EXPLOIT!", but it requires you to be actively monitoring your log to catch it, and in which case you already get a "Reconnect requested from Pool 0 to 127.0.0.1" message.
Note that disabling 'client.reconnect' might affect some pools that rely on the feature, like pools that you lease your rig to.
Oh and this is dry-coded. :)
WIP!
Use a string instead of a state-machine-ey kernel selection mechanism
where kernel names have to be predefined. This should allow just dropping
new kernels into dir `kernel` without bloating the code in three other
places.
Is in dire need of a cleanup, function parameter check, edge case check -
all the usual testing.
In particular, checking these definitions/keywords:
* enum cl_kernels
* kname
* [c]gpu[s]->kernel (and similar)
* memory cleanup after strdup()?..
* chosen_kernel
* queue_scrypt_kernel
* strbuf
* initCl
Also squashed:
config: add log messages to set_algo() and set_nfactor().
algorithm: use set_algorithm_nfactor() when setting default nfactor in set_algorithm().
Otherwise algorithm->n defaults to 0.
P.S. Did I already mention how this could have been C++?..
Had two bugs:
1. Will not compile due to unknown algorithm_t size.
2. nfactor is set to 0 (bad calling, fix later).
So squashed two commits:
1. algorithm: move algorithm_t definition to header.
2. config: if --nfactor is specified, properly set algorithm->nfactor.
Doc in `doc/configuration.md` (has to be started sometime, no?).
Configuration function has to be lamely-named set_algo(), because
set_algorithm() is already declared in algorithm.h (prevent namespace
conflict).
algorithm has to be added as global variable due to the way the
callback is done (by CCAN/opt, which in itself is nice).
This can be cleaned up significantly by (at least) introducing a
global configuration struct, but there is no reason to do it now
just for this - better a wholesale manana.
Current help contains conflict statements regarding intensity
priorities.
Per commit d11df698d141988491494aa1f29c7d3595e9712b:
- rawintensity overrides both xintensity and intensity
- xintensity overrides intensity
